I should also point out that Debian includes ogle, and it works well. 
"apt-get install ogle-gui" should do the trick.  If you're on a recent
i386 system, you might also be interested in doing "apt-get install
ogle-mmx", which replaces the generically compiled ogle runtime with an
MMX-optimized one.

The package even includes a script that will download and install the
proper CSS decryption code from the net for you.
